Raymond Douglas, M.D., Ph.D., the study’s co-principal investigator, director of the orbital and thyroid eye disease program at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, and a member of the GDATF's Physician Advisory Board stated: “In the study, patients treated with teprotumumab had an unprecedented reduction in proptosis [eye bulging], which is currently only treatable via surgery after the active disease has ended. If approved, teprotumumab would give physicians the first medicine shown to reduce proptosis during active thyroid eye disease, in addition to treating other painful symptoms.”
